    The Sony® PLAYSTATION® 3 (PS3) is the easiest and cheapest way for programmers to get their hands on the new Cell Broadband Engine™ (Cell BE) processor and take it for a drive. Discover what the fuss is all about, how to install Linux® on the PS3, and how to get started developing for the Cell BE processor on the PS3.

The PLAYSTATION 3 is unusual for a gaming console for two reasons. First, it is incredibly more open than any previous console. While most consoles do everything possible to prevent unauthorized games from being playable on their system, the PS3 goes in the other direction, even providing direct support for installing and booting foreign operating systems. Of course, many of the game-related features such as video acceleration are locked out for the third-party operating systems, but this series focuses on more general-purpose and scientific applications anyway.

The real centerpiece for the PS3, however, is its processor -- the Cell Broadband Engine chip (often called the Cell BE chip). The Cell BE architecture is a radical departure from traditional processor designs. The Cell BE processor is a chip consisting of nine processing elements (note the PS3 has one of them disabled, and one of them reserved for system use, leaving seven processing units at your disposal). The main processing element is a fairly standard general-purpose processor. It is a dual-core PowerPC®-based element, called the Power Processing Element, or PPE for short. The other eight processing elements, however, are a different story.

The other processing elements within the Cell BE are known as Synergistic Processing Elements, or SPEs. Each SPE consists of:

    * A vector processor, called a Synergistic Processing Unit, or SPU
    * A private memory area within the SPU called the local store (the size of this area on the PS3 is 256K)
    * A set of communication channels for dealing with the outside world
    * A set of 128 registers, each 128 bits wide (each register is normally treated as holding four 32-bit values simultaneously)
    * A Memory Flow Controller (MFC) which manages DMA transfers between the SPU's local store and main memory

The SPEs, however, lack most of the general-purpose features that you normally expect in a processor. They are fundamentally incapable of performing normal operating system tasks. They have no virtual memory support, don't have direct access to the computer's RAM, and have extremely limited interrupt support. These processors are wholly concentrated on processing data as quickly as possible.

Therefore, the PPE acts as the resource manager, and the SPEs act as the data crunchers. Programs on the PPE divvy up tasks to the SPEs to accomplish, and then they feed data back and forth to each other.

Connecting together the SPEs, the PPE, and the main memory controller is a bus called the Element Interconnect Bus. This is the main passageway through which data travels.

The most surprising part of this design is that the SPE's 256K local store is not a cache -- it is actually the full amount of memory that an SPE has to work with at a time for both programs and data. This seems like a disadvantage, but it actually gives several advantages:

    * Local store memory accesses are extremely fast compared to main memory accesses.
    * Accesses to local store memory can be predicted down to the clock cycle.
    * Moving data in and out of main memory can be requested asynchronously and predicted ahead of time.

Basically, it has all of the speed advantages of a cache. However, since programs use it directly and explicitly, they can be much smarter about how it is managed. It can request data to be loaded in before it is needed, and then go on to perform other tasks while waiting for the data to be loaded.

While the Cell BE processor has been out for a while in specialized hardware, the PS3 is the first Cell BE-based device that has been affordable and readily available. And, with Linux, anyone who wants to can program it.

It runs Linux? How do I get it on there?

It is unusual for gaming consoles to allow foreign operating systems to be installed on them. Since consoles are usually sold at a loss, they are usually locked down to prevent games from running on them without the publisher paying royalties to the console developer. Sony decided to open up the PS3 console a little bit, and allow third-party operating systems to be installed, with the caveat that they do not get accelerated graphics.

Because of this, you can now install Linux on the PS3. You have to jump through a few hoops, but it definitely works. Terra Soft Solutions has developed Yellow Dog Linux 5 in cooperation with Sony specifically for the PS3. It even offers, uniquely among distributions so far, support for those using it on PS3. Yellow Dog Linux (also known as YDL) has been an exclusively PowerPC-based distribution since its inception, so it was not surprising that Sony contracted it to develop the next version of YDL specifically for the PS3.

See below for instructions on installing the initial release of YDL 5 onto the PS3.

Preparing the PS3

To install Linux, you need several pieces of additional hardware:

    * A display and appropriate cabling
    * A USB keyboard
    * A USB mouse
    * A USB flash drive

On the display, there are a few gotchas to watch for. First of all, the 20GB PS3 only comes with an analog composite RCA plug for attaching to TV-like output devices. You can convert it to VGA through a special cable (see Resources for more information). Unfortunately, this operates only at 576x384. If you want better resolutions, you'll have to use the HDMI port. However, that can lead to additional problems. HDMI can be easily converted to DVI through a cable. So this should be able to be fed to a DVI-compatible monitor, right? Well, no. There is a content-protection protocol called HDCP. When outputting data over the HDMI port, the PS3 will not output any data to non-HDCP-compliant devices. Therefore, unless your monitor is HDCP-compliant, you cannot use it to get digital output from the PS3, and you're stuck with 576x384 (though some have reported higher resolutions using component video output rather than composite).

To prepare the PLAYSTATION 3, perform the following steps:

   1. Connect the ethernet cable to the PS3. Be sure the network has a DHCP server on it.
   2. If this is a fresh-from-the-factory PS3, go through the setup steps as it prompts you on your first bootup, including setting the language, time, and a username for the PS3 system.
   3. Go to Settings, then System Settings, and choose Format Utility.
   4. Select Format Hard Disk, and confirm your selection twice.
   5. Select that you want a Custom partitioning scheme.
   6. Select that you want to Allot 10GB to the Other OS. This will automatically reserve the remaining disk space for the PS3's game operating system. When finished, it will restart the system.
   7. When the system restarts, go to Settings then System Update.
   8. Choose Update via Internet.
   9. Follow the screens for the system update to download and install the latest system updates. Some screens only have cancel buttons, with no instructions on how to move forward. In order to move forward on those screens, use the X button on your controller.
  10. Once the PS3 restarts, it's ready to have Linux installed on it.

Preparing to install

Now you're ready to prepare the Linux side of things. Here are the steps you need to do on your own computer (not the PS3) to prepare for the installation:

   1. Download and burn the YDL 5 DVD ISO. There is no CD install -- the PS3 only takes DVDs.
   2. Download the PS3 OtherOS installer from Sony (see Resources) and save it as otheros.self. This is the file that runs on the PS3 game operating system to install foreign bootloaders.
   3. Download the YDL bootloader from Terra Soft (again, see Resources) and save it as otheros.bld. This will be the bootloader that the Sony installer will install.
   4. Insert a USB flash drive into your computer.
   5. At the top level of your flash drive, create a directory called PS3. Immediately under the PS3 directory, create another directory called otheros.
   6. Copy the last two files you downloaded, otheros.self and otheros.bld, into the PS3/otheros directory you just created on your flash drive.

Now it is time to install.

Performing the installation

Perform the following steps on the PS3 to install Linux onto it:

   1. Remove the flash drive from your computer and insert it into the PS3.
   2. Go to Settings, then System Settings, and then choose Install Other OS.
   3. Confirm the location of the installer, and follow the screens for the installation process. Note that this only installs the bootloader, not the operating system.
   4. When the installer finishes, go to Settings, then System Settings, and select Default System. Then choose Other OS and press the X button.
   5. Insert the YDL 5 DVD.
   6. Plug in your USB keyboard and mouse.
   7. Now restart the system. You can either do this by holding down the PS button on the controller and then choosing Turn off the system, or by simply holding the power button down for five seconds. Then turn the system back on.
   8. When it boots back up, it will look like it is booting Linux. That's because the bootloader is actually a really stripped down Linux kernel called kboot.
   9. When it gets to the kboot: prompt, type install if your output is going through the HDMI port, or installtext if you are going analog. The remaining instructions assume you used the installtext option, but there is little difference.
  10. After media verification it may give a Traceback error in the blue area of the screen. Just ignore this and proceed through the installation screens.
  11. When it asks about partitioning, don't be concerned about it erasing the PS3 game operating system. The PS3's Other OS mode only allows the guest operating system to see its own portion of the drive. Even low-level utilities cannot see the other parts of the drive. So go ahead and let YDL erase all of the data on your drive, and then let it remove all of the partitions and create a default layout.
  12. When it gets to the package installation, it takes approximately one hour to install the packages. However, it does not install the whole DVD.
  13. When it reboots, if you are using analog output, you need to type in ydl480i at the kboot: boot prompt. Otherwise it will likely change the output to a resolution that the analog output isn't capable of.
  14. When it boots, it will bring up a setup tool. There is nothing you really need to do here. If you don't do anything, it will time out and finish the bootup process.

And there you have it! YDL 5 is now on your PS3!
